Chicken in Boursin Sauce with Garlic and Fine Herbs

## 🍗 Ingredients

* 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
* Salt and pepper, to taste
* 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 package (5.2 oz) Boursin cheese (Garlic & Fine Herbs flavor)
* 1/2 cup chicken broth (or white wine for extra depth)
* 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional, for an even silkier sauce)
* Fresh parsley or thyme for garnish

## 👩‍🍳 How to Make It

1. **Prepare the chicken:**

* Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
* Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
* Sear chicken for 5–6 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

2. **Make the sauce:**

* In the same pan, reduce heat to medium. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute).
* Stir in chicken broth and let it simmer for a minute to deglaze the pan.
* Add Boursin cheese and stir until melted into a smooth, creamy sauce.
* (Optional) Stir in heavy cream for a richer consistency.

3. **Bring it all together:**

* Return chicken to the pan and coat with the sauce. Simmer for 2–3 minutes.
* Garnish with fresh herbs and serve hot.

## 💡 Tips & Variations

* Use skin-on chicken thighs for extra flavor and crispiness.
* Add baby spinach or sautéed mushrooms for a veggie boost.
* Want a lighter version? Use half-and-half or milk instead of cream.
* Serve over pasta, mashed cauliflower, or low-carb zoodles for versatility.
